Responding to the technical training system for foreigners in the supply chain
In recent years, concerns have been spreading mainly in the media and NGOs about the poor working environment surrounding foreign workers, including technical interns.
MIKI HOUSETaking this into consideration, in 2017, the company conducted a survey on foreign technical trainees on 92 manufacturing companies that manufacture products in Japan, and based on the results of the survey, they conducted a visit-home survey of all 25 companies that actually employ technical trainees from February 2018 to October 2019, in order to understand the actual situation at the site. Regarding the various risks revealed through the actual survey, we share information with our manufacturing contract factories, and work together to resolve issues.
In July 2020, with the cooperation of ASSC, we adopted a multilingual complaint handling mechanism (hotline) for workers using email and smartphone applications, and implemented an approach to solving problems through a mechanism that scoops up the voices of workers in the supply chain who are responsible for manufacturing our products.
In addition, the "Responsible Foreign Worker Acceptance Platform: JP" was established in November 2020 with the initiative of JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) and is a public-private partnership.-By participating in MIRAI as a member since the beginning, and continuing to participate in the "Foreign Workers Initiative" hosted by ASSC, we will exchange opinions with various related stakeholders and collect various information regarding the proper operation of the Technical Intern Training System for Foreigners, while making recommendations for the development of Japan's working environment as a chosen work destination and realizing a society of multicultural coexistence.
In addition, as the international trend of formulating guidelines regarding business and human rights, the Japanese textile industry, which has been pointed out as a major issue of human rights from overseas, will be participating as a member of the Textile Industry Edition, Responsible Corporate Behavior Guidelines Formulation Committee, which was established in September 2021 with the aim of creating an environment that is easy for business while fulfilling its social responsibility, and will work on recommendations and activities for the formulation of comprehensive guidelines that cover upstream to downstream throughout the textile industry.
